By watching Zomboo! But, we could use someone to sweep the parking lot&#8230;\n<\/blockquote><\/li>\n<br><br>\n\n<li><font color=\"#FF0000\">This week&#8217;s movie was not as good as some of the other movies. Why?<\/font color>\n<br>\n<blockquote>\nWe are severely limited as to what we can show due to the copyright laws.\nWe are not allowed to cut up and make fun of movies unless they are in\nthe public domain, meaning they are not copyrighted. Although we would\nlike to show good movies, there are not very many of them available in\nthe public domain.\n<\/blockquote><\/li>\n<br><br>\n\n<li><font color=\"#FF0000\">How do you choose your movies?<\/font color>\n<br>\n<blockquote>\nEeny &#8211; meeney &#8211; miney &#8211; moe, which bad movie will we show?\nThe movies we show are limited to movies that are PD or in the public\ndomain. This means they are not copyrighted and we can artistically\nalter them by adding cut-ins and sound effects.\n<\/blockquote><\/li>\n<br><br>\n\n<li><font color=\"#FF0000\">Why don&#8217;t you show new or better movies?<\/font color>\n<br>\n<blockquote>\nNew or better, make up your mind!\n<\/blockquote><\/li>\n<br><br>\n\n<li><font color=\"#FF0000\">Why can&#8217;t you show a movie if I send you a copy of it?<\/font color>\n<br>\n<blockquote>\nWe can only run movies that are not currently copyrighted or are in the \npublic domain. We do extensive research every day to find new movies for the \nshow that meet our very stringent qualifications. When we discover a film\nthat meets these qualifications, we attempt to get an official copy of it\nfrom our distributors.\n<\/blockquote><\/li>\n<br><br>\n\n<li><font color=\"#FF0000\">How do you get your ideas?<\/font color>\n<br>\n<blockquote>\nZomboo&#8217;s staff gets together with a pizza and some drinks and \nwrites the jokes. (The pizza usually writes most of the &#8220;funny&#8221; jokes!)\n<\/blockquote><\/li>\n<br><br>\n\n\n<li><font color=\"#FF0000\">Are you ever going to focus on any of the other members of the cast?<\/font color>\n<br>\n<blockquote>\nYes. Our cameras utilize an &#8220;auto-focus&#8221; lens. This should not be a problem.\n<\/blockquote><\/li>\n<br><br>\n\n<li><font color=\"#FF0000\">Why don&#8217;t you do more live action shots in the Reno and Sparks areas?<\/font color>\n<br>\n<blockquote>\nTime and money. It costs a lot of both to go &#8220;on-location&#8221;.\n<\/blockquote><\/li>\n<br><br>\n\n<li><font color=\"#FF0000\">Why don&#8217;t you ever have Zomboo fans do guest shots on the show?<\/font color>\n<br>\n<blockquote>Because this is &#8220;Zomboo&#8217;s House of Horror Movies&#8221; not \n&#8220;Zomboo&#8217;s Saturday Night Freak Show!&#8221; That, and the show is not filmed like \na live show from beginning to end. It is filmed and put together in \na process that spans several weeks. It is simply not possible. \n<\/blockquote><\/li>\n<br><br>\n\n<li><font color=\"#FF0000\">Where can I get an autographed picture of Zomboo?<\/font color>\n<br>\n<blockquote>On the BUY STUFF page there are autographed postcards and an 8&#215;10 photograph available for a tiny fee.\n<\/blockquote><\/li>\n<br><br>\n\n<li><font color=\"#FF0000\">Can we get some of the shows on DVD?<\/font color>\n<br>\n<blockquote>Yes, on the BUY STUFF page. We are currently working on all of the DVD versions of the shows when we are not answering stupid questions. \n<\/blockquote><\/li>\n<br><br>\n\n<li><font color=\"#FF0000\">Why doesn&#8217;t Zomboo produce his own low-budget horror movies?<\/font color>\n<br>\n<blockquote>Time and money. It costs a lot of both to do that.\n<\/blockquote><\/li>\n<br><br>\n\n<li><font color=\"#FF0000\">Did Zomboo appear on the Emmys?<\/font color>\n<br>\n<blockquote>Yes, Zomboo was asked to present Emmys in San Francisco and was the hit of the show.\n<\/blockquote><\/li>\n<br><br>\n\n\n<li><font color=\"#FF0000\">Why is Bianca called the &#8220;Rat Girl&#8221;?<\/font color>\n<br>\n<blockquote>Bianca is the &#8220;Rack Girl&#8221;. That&#8217;s because she is chained to a rack and because she has a nice one.\n<\/blockquote><\/li>\n<br><br>\n\n<li><font color=\"#FF0000\">The Rack Girl looks like an anchor woman on Headline News. Is she?<\/font color>\n<br>\n<blockquote>The Rack Girl to our knowledge is not a news anchor, or an anchor \nof any kind. The job of an anchor is to sink and she has a couple of things going for her that keep her afloat!\n<\/blockquote><\/li>\n<br><br>\n\n<li><font color=\"#FF0000\">Does anybody know what Bianca&#8217;s full name is?<\/font color>\n<br>\n<blockquote>Yes. It&#8217;s &#8220;Bianca the Rack Girl&#8221;.\n<\/blockquote><\/li>\n<br><br>\n\n<li><font color=\"#FF0000\">Is it just me or does Bianca look different all of a sudden?<\/font color>\n<br>\n<blockquote>It&#8217;s just you. Bianca has been on since the show began. You know,\npeople do change over periods of time&#8230; and she seems to change for \nthe better.\n<\/blockquote><\/li>\n<br><br>\n\n<li><font color=\"#FF0000\">Is Bianca the Rack Girl on any other TV show?<\/font color>\n<br>\n<blockquote>The Rack Girl can be seen making a guest appearance on the show\n&#8220;Scare Tactics&#8221; on the Sci-Fi Channel. In episode #104 &#8220;Orgy from Hell&#8221;.\n<\/blockquote><\/li>\n<br><br>\n\n<li><font color=\"#FF0000\">Are there any new &#8220;Rack Girl&#8221; pictures?<\/font color>\n<br>\n<blockquote>We add new ones every once in a while, when we are finished\ndrooling all over them.\n<\/blockquote><\/li>\n<br><br>\n\n\n<li><font color=\"#FF0000\">Last night&#8217;s movie was the worst movie I&#8217;ve ever seen. Why did you show it?<\/font color>\n<br>\n<blockquote>Everybody knows that these are bad movies to start with. That is a\ngiven. It&#8217;s the Zomboo stuff that makes it worth watching.\n<\/blockquote><\/li>\n<br><br>\n\n\n<li><font color=\"#FF0000\">Where is Vincent Price?<\/font color>\n<br>\n<blockquote>a.) Is this a trick question?\n<br><br>b.) Did you miss the showing of House on Haunted Hill or Last Man on Earth?\n<br><br>c.) Maybe he is now living in Springfield with his nephew.\n<\/blockquote><\/li>\n<br><br>\n\n<li><font color=\"#FF0000\">Why does the Zomboo show sometimes get bumped by crappy movies?<\/font color>\n<br>\n<blockquote>The station needs to honor contracts for barter movies that have to\nair in that time slot.\n<\/blockquote><\/li>\n<br><br>\n\n<li><font color=\"#FF0000\">What are &#8220;barter movies&#8221;?<\/font color>\n<br>\n<blockquote>They are movies you NOW hate because they once preempted your \nfavorite TV show. (HINT: it starts with a Z and ends in two O&#8217;s)\n<\/blockquote><\/li>\n<br><br>\n\n<li><font color=\"#FF0000\">Do you only air REAL movies?<\/font color>\n<br>\n<blockquote>No. Sometimes we air FAKE movies.\n<\/blockquote><\/li>\n<br><br>\n\n<li><font color=\"#FF0000\">Can you show a movie that I made myself?<\/font color>\n<br>\n<blockquote>a.) Does it star Angelina Jolie?\n<br><br>b.) We air 3-minute homemade horror movies when we get them and have\n\ttime in the show. If it&#8217;s a professionally done feature, we&#8217;ll\n\tlook at it to see if it&#8217;s in the spirit of the show. We have a\n\treputation to uphold and therefore we don&#8217;t want to show anything\n\tthat might upstage the feature movie!\n<\/blockquote><\/li>\n<br><br>\n\n<li><font color=\"#FF0000\">In the movie Chopping Mall, nobody was actually chopped! What&#8217;s the deal?\n<\/font color>\n<br>\n<blockquote>We are still looking into this one. Mall security is being close-lipped.\n<\/blockquote><\/li>\n<br><br>\n\n<li><font color=\"#FF0000\">I&#8217;d like to know how I can get Zomboo&#8217;s House of Horror Movies to play in my area.<\/font color>\n<br>\n<blockquote>a.) If you know a TV station that will air Zomboo in your area, see the SYNDICATION page.\n<br><br>b.) Go to the BUY STUFF page and order a DVD, then shove it in your DVD player. Press PLAY.\n<\/blockquote><\/li>\n<br><br>\n\n<li><font color=\"#FF0000\">I watch Zomboo every chance I get. Am I a genius?<\/font color>\n<br>\n<blockquote>Yes, definitely!\n<\/blockquote><\/li>\n<br><br>\n\n<li><font color=\"#FF0000\">Could we, just once, see some really great horror movies?<\/font color>\n<br>\n<blockquote>We are severely limited as to what movies we can show due to the fact \nthat the national cable networks have locked up the broadcast rights \non long-term licenses for big bucks on most of the movies which are\navailable for television.\n<\/blockquote><\/li>\n<br><br>\n\n\n<li><font color=\"#FF0000\">Is Zomboo shown in San Francisco?<\/font color>\n<br>\n<blockquote>Yes. The police regularly circulate his mug-shot there! However, \nthe show is currently not available in the Bay Area. We hope to \none day be there to continue the tradition that was started by \nBob Wilkins and Creature Features.\n<\/blockquote><\/li>\n<br><br>\n\n<li><font color=\"#FF0000\">Zomboo, I sent in a picture but I have not seen it on the show. Why?<\/font color>\n<br>\n<blockquote>I have put every picture I have received that is in reasonably good\ntaste in the Scaaary Picture Gallery portion of the show. Maybe it\nis in a show that has not aired yet or you fell asleep and \nmissed it!\n<\/blockquote><\/li>\n<br><br>\n\n<li><font color=\"#FF0000\">Do any women watch Zomboo?<\/font color>\n<br>\n<blockquote>You&#8217;d be surprised but over 50% of our audience is female according\nto the Nielsen ratings.\n<\/blockquote><\/li>\n<br><br>\n\n<li><font color=\"#FF0000\">Would somebody please explain the ending of last night&#8217;s movie?<\/font color>\n<br>\n<blockquote>The shows always end with the &#8220;roll credits&#8221;. The credits tell you\nwho was involved and what they did in that night&#8217;s movie.\n<\/blockquote><\/li>\n<br><br>\n\n<li><font color=\"#FF0000\">Why don&#8217;t you ever play any movies that your fans request?<\/font color>\n<br>\n<blockquote>a.) Because Barney vs. Godzilla is not a real movie.\n<br><br>b.) I really enjoy receiving requests from all of you horror movie \n\tenthusiasts. I wish we could accommodate all of your requests but\n\twe are limited to movies that are in the public domain and are not \n\tcopyrighted.\n<\/blockquote><\/li>\n<br><br>\n\n<li><font color=\"#FF0000\">If you run out of public domain flicks, then what?<\/font color>\n<br>\n<blockquote>a.) Survivor re-runs.\n<br><br>b.) We have a pirate movie (ARRRHH!) and a Sherlock Holmes movie \n\tfeaturing the famous detective Sherlock Zomboo.\n<\/blockquote><\/li>\n<br><br>\n\n<li><font color=\"#FF0000\">I was wondering if you could show the movie Trog. It is very campy.<\/font color>\n<br>\n<blockquote>Campy? What a stinker! This is one time that &#8220;being copyrighted&#8221; works in our favor.\n<\/blockquote><\/li>\n<br><br>\n\n<li><font color=\"#FF0000\">Can we all chip in for a Blockbuster card and get better movies?<\/font color>\n<br>\n<blockquote>Sure, why not? Too bad we couldn&#8217;t show them. Did I mention why?\n<\/blockquote><\/li>\n<br><br>\n\n<li><font color=\"#FF0000\">When are you going to offer wine wih your cheesy movies?<\/font color>\n<br>\n<blockquote>Check the BUY STUFF page. If we have it, it&#8217;s there.\n<\/blockquote><\/li>\n<br><br>\n\n<li><font color=\"#FF0000\">Who is Bruce H.?<\/font color>\n<br>\n<blockquote>Zomboo&#8217;s number one fan.\n<\/blockquote><\/li>\n<br><br>\n\n<li><font color=\"#FF0000\">Should we cancel our Saturday night activities and watch Zomboo instead?<\/font color>\n<br>\n<blockquote>YES (And no funny stuff during the Rack Girl parts either).\n<\/blockquote><\/li>\n<br><br>\n\n<li><font color=\"#FF0000\">Is there a Zomboo Fan Club?<\/font color>\n<br>\n<blockquote>Yes, Homer. You are there. It&#8217;s actually this website. Heck, you could start one if you love Zomboo that much.\n<\/blockquote><\/li>\n<br><br>\n\n<li><font color=\"#FF0000\">Does the actual Zomboo reply to these messages?<\/font color>\n<br>\n<blockquote>Yes, Zomboo replies to these messages.\n<\/blockquote><\/li>\n<br><br>\n\n<li><font color=\"#FF0000\">Can I meet Zomboo? If so, where?<\/font color>\n<br>\n<blockquote>Keep an eye on your local broadcast. Special announcements will be made regarding\nappearances in your area.\n<\/blockquote><\/li>\n<br><br>\n\n<li><font color=\"#FF0000\">Are you going to show repeats of the first season?<\/font color>\n<br>\n<blockquote>Yes, we occasionally mix them into the schedule.\n<\/blockquote><\/li>\n<br><br>\n\n<li><font color=\"#FF0000\">Will Zomboo be running for President next term?<\/font color>\n<br>\n<blockquote>No, Zomboo does not have time to waste on stupid stuff like that.\n<\/blockquote><\/li>\n<br><br>\n\n<li><font color=\"#FF0000\">I record Zomboo&#8217;s show every week. Can I trade tapes with others?<\/font color>\n<br>\n<blockquote>You may trade tapes with others but duplicating and selling the shows\nto anyone would be bad and inappropriate. We have the shows for sale on DVD\nso you can own &#8220;high quality&#8221; bad movies!\n<\/blockquote><\/li>\n<br><br>\n\n<li><font color=\"#FF0000\">Where do I send my scaaary pictures and 3-minute horror movies?<\/font color>\n<br>\n<blockquote>ZOMBOO at KOLO TV\n<br>4850 AMPERE DRIVE\n<br>RENO, NV 89502\n<\/blockquote><\/li>\n<br><br>\n\n<li><font color=\"#FF0000\">I have a hard time staying awake through your whole show. What should I do?<\/font color>\n<br>\n<blockquote>Buy a few sets of show DVDs and go to sleep.\n<\/blockquote><\/li>\n<br><br>\n\n\n<li><font color=\"#FF0000\">Did Zomboo ever go out on a date with Elvira?<\/font color>\n<br>\n<blockquote>If she did, she would now be called the &#8220;Mistress of the Dork&#8221;.\n<\/blockquote><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n<br><br>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n<\/center>\n<\/body>\n<\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>FAQ : Zomboo&#8217;s House of Horror Movies Why does Zomboo need a FAQ list?
